  • Abstract: Often conceived of as a solitary practice for daydreamers, the walk in the eighteenth century was in fact primarily a matter of sociability. By examining historical and literary texts, this article considers the walk from this perspective, as a practice that was less spontaneous and more constrained by multiple traditions.
